Exactly what I was looking for
||Posted . Owned for 2 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This is a wonderful keyboard. My requirements in looking for a new keyboard were a) tactile, quiet (non-clicky) keys, b) a USB port on the right side, c) a comfortable yet durable wrist rest, and d) tasteful RGB. This thing delivers on all fronts, with the added bonus of having a really sleek silver (Real metal) design. The RGB is easy to use through the Logitech G Hub and is VERY customizable. The keys are very responsive and comfortable while not having an annoying click. I would strongly recommend!

love it
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Pretty sleek looking Mechanical keyboard. Not too over the top but still flashy with a hint of class. This keyboard comes with a nice plush palm rest. Most keyboard palm rest are rubber. The tactile bump is perfect. You get the bump without the click. Similar to cherry mx brown. Just much quieter and with less key travel. The RGB keys are controlled with logitech's gaming software. You can individually control each key light color if you want or choose from a list of effects and colors. The only thing you can't do is layer effects like with corsair's software. Which brings me to my one and only real complaint. The space bar stabilizer. I wish it was just a quite as all the other keys. But to my understanding, there is no getting away from that. All keyboards space-bars tend to be louder than all the other keys do the the stabilizer. whether you get a membrane or mechanical. Corsair or Logitech. My buddy has a corsair mx cherry red keyboard and his keys are much loader than my romer g tactile switches.

Sleek Minimalist Gamer
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I am coming from using a Vengeance K70 and Logitech G Pro TKL keyboard. I had high expectations for this purchase and was more than pleased. I use my computer for 8-10 hours a day for content creation and then 2-3 hours of gaming. This keyboard delivered excellent ergonomics for extended typing and gaming. The slim profile, unlike other "elite" style boards, made it easy to push the keyboard out of the way when bringing out the sketch pad or tablet.

Lasts 1 Year
||Posted . Owned for 1 year when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I purchased this device in April of 2019. It started well. The keys felt good and did not need much pressure to trigger. The keyboard feels premium. It's metal body has weight and gives it a sturdy and solid feel. I believe that's where the price comes from. Now, one year later, I am facing issues. The keyboard registers what I would call "phantom" actuations. As an example, I often type the word "the" and ever so often it will enter a "space" press. This happens about 3 out of every 20 times. The number "1" on the number row stops working randomly. The tab key will respond to one press with 2-3 registers. The most funny thing about this, though, is that these problem happened the same month my one year warranty expired. When it worked, it was great. However, having issues from a $150 "gaming"/mechanical keyboard after one year is disappointing, to say the least.

Buyer beware - poor construction quality
||Posted . Owned for more than 2 years when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I thought it was a great keyboard, until the Control key cap broke off. I used the keyboard for normal computing tasks and a little bit of gaming. I wasn't rough on the keyboard, it's just not built that great. The Control key cap broke off in the socket. Logitech was nice enough to send another set of keys, but with the socket (part where the key plugs into) blocked, the keys are useless. You can see that the keycaps are held on with little (fragile) plastic clips. The keyboard barely lasted 2 years. For a $130 keyboard, in my mind, it should have lasted a lot longer. I've had cheaper keyboards that have lasted way longer. My apple keyboard for work is more than 6 years old and still works perfectly. As the unit is out of warranty, Logitech will not touch it. So off to the landfill it goes. This will be the last Logitech item I will buy. I recommend you go with another brand.

Great high quality keyboard
||Posted . Owned for 5 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This keyboard is really nice. Have owned it for a few months now. Haven't had any issues with it. The keyboard is great. The metal frame gives it some weight and adds to the high quality feel. I purchased the silver version with the tactile Romer G switches. They feel good for typing and gaming and not too loud compared to the blue mx switch version. Backlight looks great as well. Once you download the Logitech software you can customize the keyboard in many ways. You can make any key light in any color you want. You can also switch the function row with the alternative functions , if you don't want to hit FN+ The f keys to adjust volume. You can disable the windows key as to not trigger it during gaming. It also looks nice, clean, and didn't scream gamer. It's simple and sleek. No excessive gamery aesthetics and lights. The wrist rest it's probably the best I've ever tried. Very comfortable and compliments the keyboard. Very pleased with my purchase.

I adore this keyboard.
||Posted . Owned for 3 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I switched to this from a Razer Blackwidow and I could not be happier. This Logitech feels better-constructed and it looks more slick and tasteful. The lighting is great, and my only complaint is that it doesn't integrate with Overwatch natively like the Razer did, but I feel like it was a worthwhile tradeoff. If you like your Razer product but wish it were just more durable, look here. The configuration software seems a little weirdly confusing to use but a little digging around will yield all the usual features, including a way to download user-created lighting profiles.

Q: QuestionWill they be bringing another shipment of these to Puerto Rico anytime soon?
Asked by Javi.
Q: QuestionIs the numerical keypad programmable? We need the numbers positioned like a telephone, i.e., 1-2-3 on top, 7-8-9 on the bottom. We are making an air traffic radar lab and trying to replicate the computer human interface used in Air Traffic Centers.
Asked by AK907ATC.
- A:Answer Hello. ZTL CPC, here. It appears that they are programmable. There's a page in the software where it looks like you can reassign keys pretty much as you see fit. I've included a photo of that screen.
